Yesterday, I had the honor of assisting our local community activist, Vaun Mayes, with his 11th annual Gift Drive and it was quite the experience. It takes a village! There were countless volunteers. So many of our dope Milwaukee businesses, as well as dope individuals sponsored and donated to make this event the magnitude itβs grown to be over the years. We (the volunteers) trailed a party bus, filled with influencers and Vaun, 2 Uhauls full of gift bags and a trailer filled to capacity with bikes, tvs and scooters. We then drove to random neighborhoods to surprise unsuspecting families. This was like nothing Iβve ever seen before. Pure, organized, joyful chaos lol. The looks on the kidβs faces was literally priceless. Some say thereβs a dark cloud over our city but I believe a lot of that is subjective to oneβs perspective. Thereβs a lot of greatness that happens in our city. Letβs be the change we want to see, as well as focus on the positive and give it more publicity and attention than the negative. ππΌβ€οΈ
